Within Maharashtra, the Mumbai-Pune corridor presented a unique prospect with significant latent healthcare demand and constrained supply. With a footprint that provided healthcare access to approximately 20 million people in Pune, Nashik, and Karad, Sahyadri offered a fantastic opportunity. Having clinical capabilities and a good executive track record, Sahyadri was the apt platform for creating the largest hospital network in Maharashtra.
With the support of Everstone, Sahyadri commenced work on quickly expanding by adding approximately 200 beds in the last two to three years to the existing facilities. It also improved the physical infrastructure for a better patient experience and added high-end medical technology for best-in-class care and the continuum of care in a holistic manner by increasing the diagnostics platform.
Another focus area was to widen the reach in Western and Central India and to bring in a professional management team to work under the guidance of promoters. The hospital chain brought in new medical talent and created Centres of Excellence (CoE) for quaternary care. These initiatives were directed towards revamping Sahyadri by improving the overall digital customer experience, adding digital capabilities and adopting a ‘Culture of Care’. Today, Sahyadri has a hub and spoke model with multiple facilities complementing each other, as each is positioned uniquely to serve all segments of the population.
